Information processing apparatus, information processing method, and non-transitory computer readable medium

Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes: a memory that stores instructions; and a processor that is configured to execute the instructions to acquire avatar information including an appearance of an avatar linked to a user, estimate attributes of the avatar on the basis of the avatar information, and output request information for requesting content to be displayed for the user in a virtual space on the basis of the attributes.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An information processing apparatus comprising:
 at least one memory that stores instructions; and   at least one processor that is configured to execute the instructions to;   acquire avatar information including an appearance of an avatar linked to a user,   estimate attributes of the avatar on the basis of the avatar information, and   output request information for requesting content to be displayed for the user in a virtual space on the basis of the attributes.   
     
     
         2 . The information processing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the at least one processor executes the instructions to   acquire the avatar information including a behavior history of the avatar, and   the behavior history includes at least any of features of an object that is present in a field of view of the avatar, a period of time during which the object is present in the field of view, and a distance between the object and the avatar.   
     
     
         3 . The information processing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the at least one processor executes the instructions to   acquire the avatar information including a behavior history of the avatar, and   the behavior history includes at least any of content of utterances of the avatar and content of chatting of the avatar.   
     
     
         4 . The information processing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the at least one processor executes the instructions to   estimate the attributes of the avatar by making reference about features of an appearance of the avatar to a predetermined attribute database, and   the attribute database includes   tastes and preferences of the avatar linked to other users, and   data of avatars linked to the other users with appearances similar to an appearance of the avatar of the user.   
     
     
         5 . The information processing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor executes the instructions to output information regarding a type of the content to be displayed for the user in the virtual space on the basis of the attributes. 
     
     
         6 . The information processing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor executes the instructions to display an attribute image that is caused to be generated or selected to let the user visually recognize the attributes included in the request information in the virtual space. 
     
     
         7 . The information processing apparatus according to  claim 6 , wherein
 the at least one processor executes the instructions to   display a plurality of the attribute images that are caused to be generated or selected to let the user visually recognize each of the plurality of estimated attributes in the virtual space, and   output the request information including the attributes displayed in the attribute image selected by the user from among the plurality of attribute images.   
     
     
         8 . The information processing apparatus according to  claim 7 , wherein
 the at least one processor executes the instructions to   display a plurality of avatar information images that are caused to be generated or selected to let the user visually recognize each of a plurality of pieces of the avatar information, on the basis of which the attributes have been estimated, in the virtual space, and   in a case where the attributes and the avatar information, on the basis of which the attributes have been estimated, are linked, the attribute images and the avatar information images that are caused to display the avatar information linked to the attributes displayed in the attribute images are displayed in a linked manner.   
     
     
         9 . An information processing method comprising:
 acquiring avatar information including an appearance of an avatar linked to a user;   estimating attributes of the avatar on the basis of the avatar information; and   outputting request information for requesting content to be displayed for the user in a virtual space on the basis of the attributes.   
     
     
         10 . A non-transitory computer readable medium that stores an information processing program that causes a computer to execute:
 acquiring avatar information including an appearance of an avatar linked to a user;   estimating attributes of the avatar on the basis of the avatar information; and   outputting request information for requesting content to be displayed for the user in a virtual space on the basis of the attributes.
